Guild Wars 2

The funny thing is, the 500 Badges of Honor annoy me just as much. Why is ANet punishing people who do not like a certain aspect of the game. Getting mobbed by zergs repeatedly is not my idea of a good time. The fact PvP is required to get a Legendary weapon, that will be used in PvE is completely silly.

People should be required to play all aspects of the game to get Legend Status or whatever. I don’t know where others are coming from, but my argument is there should either be a way for PvE players to get an achievement for exploring the entire normal map and the WvW players should get something for the WvW map.

Heck, I’d even be Ok with them making you go to WvW, but have the POI and Vistas located in areas that you can get to without taking certain points. I think I have 13/16 POIs on each location and 7/10 Vistas. Making them be acquirable by walking up to the castles/towers would be much better.

Give me the ability to finish the “story” portion on my own. I look forward to meeting up with groups in WvW and such, but I wanted to finish the game first. I’m now stuck begging people to play the “Kill Zhaitan” dungeon in story mode only to be rudely turned down.

The other is have 2 separate achievement bars for exploration. One for WvW and the other for PvE. I can’t stand it that I’m sitting at 98% explored because nobody wants to capture the sites closest to enemy bases. The other option would be to rotate the starting base every day/week so at least I knew there was a chance to get them.

98% explored. This has been driving me nuts. I’ve spent almost as much time getting the 92% as I have to get the WvW stuff. At one point, it probably wasn’t that tough, but the past few times I’ve been on there, it’s all about efficiency. The POIs and Vistas that I still need are right next to the enemy bases. It doesn’t make sense for my server to make the effort when they can make a big sweep to the nearby bases, take them and get their points.

I like to see things completed. Forcing me to participate in WvW, where I usually just wander around solo and prevent people who actually want to play from getting in sucks. It’s sapped the fun out of the game for me.
